Versión original en checo, subtítulos en inglés

There is something in the films from old Czechoslovakia instantly recognisable and peculiar: its humour. It is something taunting, and cheerful. It shines through the comedies, and also appears in more sombre films.

This movie, about a man who makes believe he is a waiter, achieves to be very funny and realistic at the same time.

There is also something in the movies from the late sixties, seventies and early eighties that appeals to me, maybe because I was a child and a boy then. If the film is good, like this one, so much the better.

I think that this is comedy at its best. It's about some Italians stranded in Argentina, with Vittorio Gassman, Nino Manfredi, and the beauty of Maria Grazia Buccella e le altre donne.

These songs, recorded in 1986, were meant to be Josie Cotton's third album, only they weren't released till last year. I think that anyone who likes, or grew up, listening to new wave, punk rock and sixties pop, and has not yet listened to this, is in for a treat.

She also has a recent single, Ukrainian Cowboy, from her forthcoming album.
